Municipal solid waste

elements react together it forms –iron oxide (rust). Rust can reduce the effectiveness and efficiency of the material. So you should be very careful whilst handling steel in construction. Moreover, metallic bonds have a simple crystal lattice in solid state and are the weakest primary chemical bonds. Hence the reason to why pure metals are dissolved with other elements such as: carbon for mild steels. Metal alloys have increased strength and hardness. The structure of alloys reduces the space…

Fig. 5 shows the monotonic and cyclic stress-strain responses of selected specimens having all influential parameters considered in this study, such as the volumetric ratio of transverse steel reinforcement, number of CFRP layers, and aspect ratio. In this figure, the axial stress was calculated by dividing the axial load to the column cross-sectional area, and the corresponding axial strain was derived from the average readings of the four LVDTs divided by the central gauge length of each…

Pestel analysis on Cadbury: It’s an analysis in which evaluate a firm or a nation or anything else under following domains: political, economical, social, technological, environmental and legal. This is done to chart long term plans. Cadbury is synonymous with chocolate consumption worldwide. Opening shop in the early 19th century, Cadbury has emerged as a global brand with factories and offices the United Kingdom and North America, and a notable presence in Asia and Africa as well. In 2008,…

pin inserted through eye. The pin has a head at one end and at other end there is a taper pin or split pin. For gripping purpose the ends of the rod are of octagonal forms. Now, when the two eyes are pulled apart, the pin holds them together .The solid rod portion of the joint in this case is much stronger than the portion through which the pin passes. The modes of failure are: 1. Shear failure of pin (single…

dinner. But as you open the fridge, those chicken wings that you’ve been saving have rotten, and now your left with an odor and food gone to waste. Many cooks at home can relate to the issue. As rotten food contributes to the food waste problem in the country, your hard-earned money is thrown away. Spoiled is the solution to your problem as well as decreasing waste in the food system. It is a mobile app that tracks and reminds you of food expirations and if your food will potentially rot.…

and 7 union territories. The prime focus of hazardous waste management is to ensure safe, effective and economic way of collection, to transport, treating the waste and disposing off the hazardous waste. The industrial sector has rapidly grown in India which has contributed to the economic growth of the country as well as added to the pollution. The prime focus of this report…

Recycling is one way to reduce the waste taken to landfills. Recycling is also the process we use to reuse recovered items. In my household, we recycle aluminum cans, glass, newspapers, plastic bottles, and magazines because I care about the environment. Recycling is good for the environment because it conserves our natural resources, it saves energy, and it reduces pollution. The problem is that we need to convince the community to recycle more than they are doing. We need to convince…

Has it ever crossed your mind when you are tossing out that food that has been sitting in the fridge for weeks, where the aged, spoiled food goes once it is thrown out? When waste is thrown out, it is often taken to a landfill, an area of land where refuse is taken and accumulates over time (“Landfill Problems”). Landfills provide a simple and low-cost solution to the copious amount of trash that people accumulate; however, these dome-shaped dumps seriously harm people and the environment. In…

management of municipal solid waste (MSW) is monumental for sustainable development, because all human activities generate waste. This has significant impact on the environment (hazardous gas emissions), economy (disposal cost) and health (DEFRA, 2011). About 3 billion tonnes of MSW are generated in Europe annually (EC, 2010). Fig 1.1 shows the municipal waste generation by EU countries expressed in kilogram per capital for year 2003 and 2013. While Fig 1.2, shows the amount of waste treated in…

The word Eco-Defense doesn’t have a dictionary definition but in most logical forms it could mean defending the ecosystem. Every factor in an ecosystem depends on each other, either directly or indirectly. That area consists of plants, animals, the weather, landscape and other organisms and they work together to form a bubble of life. A change in temperature will affect how plants grow, while animals depend on those plants for food and shelter. These changes will force those animals to either…
